The East
should be the most competitive division in football this offseason, but does
that make a bet in this division more or less valuable? I think it does both,
but in this case, I think one of the underdogs is the best bet this season. The
Giants at +210 are ok, but I see them having similar issues this year as they
did a season ago. The Cowboys are the Cowboys, and the Eagles don’t have enough
value at this point, so for me the choice is the Skins at +240. Robert Griffin
III looks like he is on track to play in Week 1, and if they can get some of
their other guys back from injury as well, this is going to be a deep and
talented team on both sides of the ball. At +240, I think the price is right.

This is
probably one of the divisions that you might want to hedge any bet you have with
a smaller wager on an underdog, and that’s exactly what I’m doing here. I think
the Packers will win this division, and at only -160, the value is there.
However there is another team with a ton of value in these odds as well. The
Lions are overvalued here, and I think because of their new head coach, the
Bears might be a year away, but the Vikings almost won this division a year
ago, and they have just gotten better this offseason. At +600, I am happy to
hedge any bet with the Packers with a nice wager on the Vikings.

The
South should be a fight to the end, but in the end I think the Falcons will
come away victorious. The Saints will likely still have some issues on defense,
and the only real underdog value might be the Bucs. If you want to use a
similar formula on this division as I did in the NFC North, go right ahead.
However I feel confident that the Falcons’ offense is going to carry them right
to another divisional crown. There is a reason they ran away with the division
a year ago, and even though it wont be that way this season, I think there is still
value in the Falcons here since they are not laying money.

These
NFL Odds are the ones I got from LVH Sportsbook in Las Vegas, and with this
division, I think it’s quite obvious it’s a two-team race. The Cards are not
going to be very good again, and even though I expect a ton of value from the
Rams, I think they are still one or two seasons away from competing for the
division. That leaves the Hawks and 49ers, and I can’t pick between the two. Bet365
has them virtually tied, and whilie I do like the 49ers, I think any bet on the
Niners has to be hedged by the Seahawks. The formula is below.
